Chapter 186
No matter what Hayden’s motive was, Marlon and I must be very careful when we met.
I didn’t want to reveal my whereabouts until I had decided how to take revenge.
Ebenezer finished his coffee in one gulp, checked the time, and asked, “There are still a few hours left. Where are you going?”
He was not familiar with Elysiumville.
I have somewhere to be. Dylan, why don’t you show Mr. Kennedy around.” I replied.
“Where are you going, Yvonne?” Dylan suddenly became nervous.
Ebenezer said. “You can’t leave. I have to hand you over to Marlon. If something happens on the way, that guy will kill me!”
I frowned slightly. It didn’t seem like he was joking, so I sighed, “Well, let’s meet Marlon first then”
“How about… another cup of coffee?” Dylan suggested.
Ebenezer waved his hand again and again, “No more, or I won’t be able to sleep tonight. This week has been nerve–wracking. I plan to have a good sleep tonight!”
I hadn’t had a good night’s sleep in a week either.
Since returning from the border and having to hide from various forces, we had not had a decent meal or a moment of relaxation
We went out for a restaurant in the evening.
I didn’t usually miss food in Elysiumville, but after being away from home for so long, I craved it.
Dylan and I were enjoying the meal, but Ebenezer didn’t seem to like it. He stared at us with a puzzled look on his face. “This is what you have been missing? It’s so ordinary.”
“Perhaps it’s not the taste of the dish itself, but the nostalgia for home… Dylan sighed softly.
He was from Elysiumville too, so he felt the same way I did.
Looking at the food in front of me, I found it surprisingly delicious.
It was not that the chef’s skills were particularly exquisite. It was just that I was finally back in Elysiumville.
I almost didn’t make it back.
It was already late when I saw Marlon.
He rushed over, his black coat damp with dew
His gaze fell on me the moment he appeared.
“Marlon..” I wanted to greet him. Although we hadn’t been apart for long, we had still gone through a crisis.
I wanted to greet him, and although we hadn’t been apart for long, we had still gone through a life–or–death situation.
But before I could say his name, he rushed toward me and pulled me into his arms.
He was so strong that I bumped into his chest, and the tip of my nose suddenly hurt.
Then an irresistible force hugged me tightly.

Chapter 156
I didn’t know if it was my illusion, but I felt his body trembling slightly.
I almost forgot to breathe.
I wondered if my life was really that important to him.
However, I did not seek the answer to this question
Dylan and Ebenezer were still there.
I gave a chuckle and said. “I am still warm, right? Don’t worry, I’m not a ghost.”
The awkwardness of the situation was instantly dispelled.
Ebenezers wide eyes gradually returned to their normal size, and he even laughed. “If you were a ghost, what have I been doing these past few days?”
Dylan also looked away, the comers of his lips curling up slightly
Marlon came back to his senses, tried to suppress his emotions, and let go of me.
“It’s good that you’re alive.” All his longing and deep affection were finally condensed into these simple words.
I nodded and quickly changed the subject, “Where is Joanna?”
As soon as Dylan heard that, his attention was focused.
Marion frowned. ‘She’s at the Jackson residence. You want revenge now?”
He had been gradually informed of my situation over the past few days, and he had said that he would help me keep an eye on Joanna
“If I can!” I clenched my fist as hatred flew from my eyes.
“It’s not the time yet. Besides you’re still pregnant.” Marlon reminded me.
“Are you trying to talk me out of it?” I stared at him.
I could hear the hesitation in his voice.
Marlon sighed, “I’ll even help you with it. But the situation is not in your favor now. What about the money in your overseas account and the entire Jackson Group? It’s easy to take revenge, but the most important thing is how to make the enemy suffer
the most.
I pondered for a moment and felt these words were reasonable.
I was all alone, and my health hadn’t been good. On top of that. I was pregnant.
It was really not a good time to do this.
“How long do you want me to wait?” I asked stubbornly.
“At least until after the baby is born.” Marlon replied firmly.
I fell silent and thought, ‘I have to wait for a year! That’s too long… I wish I can go up to Joanna and Sophia right now and kill
them!
“No.” I refused immediately.
Marlon seemed to have expected me to say that. “Think about it for a couple of days,” he said.
I didn’t say anything else, but my expression was grave.

Ex–Husband Got Crazy When I Disappear
Every second i stood here helpless was agony for me.
Marlon didn’t press me any further. He turned to Dylan instead.
“Thank you very much. He expressed his thanks sincerely as if what Dylan was protecting was a rare treasure that he had.
Dylan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, “I’m just doing what I want to do. I’m very satisfied that Yvonne is still alive.
He did this not for others, but to follow his heart.
Hearing this, Marlon nodded and patted him on the shoulder.
Sometimes, words were not necessary between men
Seeing this, Ebenezer stretched and said, “Okay, I’ve delivered the person to you, and my task is over. I’ll get going”
Marlon looked up at him. I’ll see you out.”
Then the two of them walked towards the door.
Dylan saw that I hadn’t spoken for a long time, and couldn’t help but ask, “What do you think?”
“I want revenge now!” I answered without thinking.
But soon, I sighed. “Marlon is right. I still have the baby…”
Subconsciously, I caressed my belly. If the Parker family found out about this child, they would never let it off.
Besides, I really didn’t have the ability to do much at that moment.
Marlon’s proposal was probably the most pertinent.
However, I finally made it back, and I couldn’t accept waiting for another year before taking my revenge.
Dylan was also silent for a moment, then said, “Revenge is a dish best served cold. Yvonne, I can wait with you until the perfect
moment!”
